Hi, the best and only internet I got is at&t dsl at 5mbs download speed. If I have the router in my house, is it possible to extend the wireless service to a barn 400ft away with minimal costs? The barn net wont be for heavy use, just to keep connected to messages etc.
I already have a trench and conduit running underground from the atnt box next to my house all the way to the barn. There is also a cat5 cable running down to the barn through the conduit, its hooked up to the barn router but i plan on bringing the router to the house for primary use, but extending it back down to the barn to have some connection there too. Would I bring the router/modem back to the house, and connect a wifi extender using that cat cable and place that in the barn? Do i need a switch or injector half way through so the signal doesn't deteriorate?
Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks
